When We Move (Feat. Black Thought, Seun Kuti)

Bouncin' mystic realistic And simplistic spirits visit How we live it it's intrinsic Kismet kissed it it's smeared like lipstick Colorful on our souls A mouth full of gold or a drummer's roll Stories get told about us That's why things so blah without us Wherever we are you can feel the prowess Whenever we move yo we turn the style up I'ma just give Black power its flowers Whether in the projects or the palace Even when the pale horse tried to gallop And stir stir it up we kept the balance We move in silence we move the loudest Ancestors in my dreams they move the wildest They prayed about us praised and shouted Picture this country bein' brave without us A slave's nostalgia move through the woods with vigor When we got free the world moved with us Now they wanna change their bodies go figure Used to call us now they wanna be niggas We the rivers that move through the jungle yo When we move we make the world wonderful When we move The whole world follows in our path When we move The whole world follows in our path And who can move like this Let me see what I can do right quick My people were made in whose likeness Boy fly niggas ain't never flew like this Pitch black butterfly from the other side Somebody's style was lost it wasn't mine I'm in a small demographic Of real ones dealin' with all things classic King's fabric linen and silk From the home of the solid gold honey and milk The ones who built it from the mud soil and sand A Black man the world in the skin of his hand Pop then I stop when I shine beyond stellar Fela Kwame Nkrumah Mandela Leader truth teller the inkwell dweller My pen signs a New York Times best seller When I move y'all move in my wake B D energy I generate How to never move weak I demonstrate Celebratin' my peeps when I innovate For my dons and divas weighin' odds and evens To the non believers vagabonds and heathens Achievers we ain't satisfied with dreamin' Long as I'm still breathin' watch how I move When we move The whole world follows in our path When we move The whole world follows in our path When we move Move The whole world follows in our path When we move Move The whole world follows in our path Would they feel the pain like we do Would they hear a cry like we do No one cares no one cares But when we move Move The whole world follows in our path When we move Move The whole world follows in our path But when we move Move The whole world follows in our path When we move Move The whole world follows in our path
